Lumbar Spine Degenerative Disease: Effect on Bone Mineral Density Measurements in the Lumbar Spine and Femoral Neck
Purpose: To determine the effect of degenerative disease of the lumbar spine on bone mineral density in the lumbar spine and femoral neck. Materials and Methods: We reviewed radiographs and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scans of the lumbar spine and hip in 305 Caucasian women with suspected osteoporosis. One hundred and eighty-six patients remained after excluding women less than 40 years of...
متن کاملBone mineral density in patients with femoral neck fractures.
BACKGROUND [corrected] By providing essential information regarding bone mineral density (BMD), Densitometry can predict the mechanical resistance of bone tissue and the risk of fractures. However, fractures frequently occur in the femoral cervix and the spine before the loss of BMD reaches the densitometric threshold of osteoporosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS We studied 46 patients with total hip...
متن کامل"Longitudinal study on physical fitness parameters influencing bone mineral density reduction in middle-aged and elderly women: bone mineral density in the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and femur".
The prolongation of the average life span of women has been associated with the rapidly aging society. However, serious problem have arisen as a result, such as an increase in the number of bed-ridden elderly patients with osteoporosis-associated femoral neck fracture. As preventive measures against osteoporosis for middle-aged to elderly women, 10,000 steps per day and intense exercise have be...
متن کاملComparison of femoral morphology and bone mineral density between femoral neck fractures and trochanteric fractures.
BACKGROUND Many studies that analyzed bone mineral density (BMD) and skeletal factors of hip fractures were based on uncalibrated radiographs or dual-energy xray absorptiometry (DXA). QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Spatial accuracy in measuring BMD and morphologic features of the femur with DXA is limited. This study investigated differences in BMD and morphologic features of the femur between two types ...
متن کاملBone mineral density in young Indian adults with traumatic proximal femoral fractures. A case control study.
There is scarcity of data on osteoporosis in India for the age group of 20-40 years when peak bone mass is achieved. This study aimed to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in patients in this age group with traumatic proximal femoral fractures, and to compare it with age matched controls. Thirty patients aged 20 to 40 years with traumatic proximal femoral fractures and 30 healthy volunteers with...
